English
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Whitman had written a long poem and some of the readers might feel bored reading it, so he used this device to give some energy to it. Since anaphora is repetition, it keeps on getting in the mind of the readers thus giving emphasis to the ideas he expresses.

Which of these statements about other characters' reactions to Myrtle's death is true?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The true statement about Myrtle's death is:

b. Tom's first instinct is to protect himself. Later he cries.

Explanation:

The characters mentioned in the question belong to the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Tom is married to Daisy, and Myrtle is married to Wilson. Tom and Myrtle have an affair, of which Wilson is starting to suspect and Daisy already knows. Daisy is also having an affair with the protagonist of the story, Gatsby. While driving back from New York to their homes in a yellow car, Daisy and Gatsby run over and kill Myrtle. They do not pull over to give any assistance.

Tom is following in another car with Nick, the story's narrator and Daisy's cousin. When he finds out his lover has died, he is in shock for a moment. He is forced to recover quickly when a witness talks about the yellow car that ran over Myrtle. It turns out that the car is Tom's, and Wilson has seen Tom driving it previously. Afraid that Wilson might blame him for the accident, Tom's instinct is to protect himself. He tells Wilson the yellow car is not his, and quickly goes away with Nick, all the time being authoritative. However, as soon as they distance themselves from the scene, Tom begins to cry.

<em>"Listen," said Tom, shaking him a little. "I just got here a minute ago, from New York. I was bringing you that coupe we've been talking about. That yellow car I was driving this afternoon wasn't mine - do you hear? I haven't seen it all afternoon."</em>

<em>[...]</em>

<em>In a little while I heard a low husky sob, and saw that the tears were overflowing down his face.</em>

What are the rising action, climax, falling action, resolution of the story hey come on out.​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Rising Action: People investigate. A young man yells down the hole to see if it was a fox hole or something. He then throws down  pebble to hear when it hits the ground but they never herd it. The scientist tries to figure out what it is and how it got there. Some one tries to use rope to see how deep it is. When they figure it´s an extremely big hole, the mayor gives it away and people start throwing in old diaries, old newspapers, garbage nuclear waste and anything else they do not want.

Climax: When the village starts to get bigger because of all the people who want to work for the man who owns the hole and they have to build more buildings. One day a construction worker, was standing on top of the building and looked up at the sky because he thought he heard someone say ¨H-Hey, come on ou-t¨ Then a pebble falls from the sky as well but he fails to notice.

Falling action: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.

Resolution: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.

Hope this helps!
